Mince pie... It's been getting harder and harder to find mince pies around here but this year I found one that actually included meat - in this case chuck roast. Found it in an Amish bakery in Indiana. I think its the first time I've had genuine "mince meat" pie and it was very good! On

Re: How did you celebrate New Year's Eve?

One of the things that I find enjoyably ironic, especially in these days of anti-Muslim frenzy, is that many of our traditional Christmas foods, including mince pies, derive from Middle-Eastern recipes that the Crusaders brought back with them. In Morocco you can still eat wonderful dishes like

Re: How did you celebrate New Year's Eve?

Wow - I think I would enjoy down under cuisine. The mince meat pie we had was still more of a dessert dish than a full blown meat pie, though in my opinion it was not too sweet for breakfast. On 1/2/2016 3:44 PM, Brian Walters wrote: On Sun, Jan 3, 2016, at 03:57 AM, Mark C wrote: Mince

Liz was an accillary police officer from 1984 till 1999, pretty much of Erin's formative years, and would always be out on a patrol New Years Eve, so i would stay home with our daughter and in house celebrate. Now that she has retired from that and our daughter has moved on we continue the

We watched Hunt for Red October on TV, the local news, and then watched the ball drop. New Years Eve is a quiet night for us - we have family gatherings on Xmas Eve, Christmas day, the day after Christmas (nephew's birthday) and then on new years day (niece's birthday). This year we hosted

Not a lot different to the rest of you - other than Bob... We really must be an 'old farts' list! We watched The Big Bash (20/20 cricket) from Adelaide - great fun, even if the Sydney team lost - then stayed up to midnight to watch (again on TV) several million dollars go up in smoke (the Sydney

I think I must have had the most boring NYE of the lot of us. I did absolutely nothing special and went to bed at the usual time. I haven't bothered with the midnight thing for a few years now. It'll be midnight somewhere in the world throughout the whole day so there's no need to stay up :)

Re: How did you celebrate New Year's Eve?

Ironically, as one of the more introverted list members, I would normally spend NYE at home. But a few years ago our street gained an gregarious young couple who invite their family and all the neighbors over each year. So my wife and I spent the first three hours of the evening nibbling fabulous
